Line Item Features

Line item alerts are predefined text that can be added to line items that are on
selection lists or purchase orders. You can define the alerts from which staff
can choose. Line item alerts appear in a pop-up box when the line item, or any
of its copies, are marked as received.

Line item MARC attribute definitions

Line item attributes define the fields that Evergreen needs to extract from the
bibliographic records that are in the acquisitions database to display in the
catalog. Also, these attributes will appear as fields in the New Brief Record
interface. You will be able to enter information for the brief record in the
fields where attributes have been defined.
